Career army officer and the most successful general of the Confederate forces during the Civil War. He eventually commanded all Confederate armies as general-in-chief. His victories against superior forces in an ultimately losing cause won him enduring fame. After the war, he urged sectional reconciliation, and spent his final years as president of the school that would come to bear his name, Washington and Lee University. Choice ink signature, “R. E. Lee,” on an off-white 2.75 x 1.5 slip. Triple cloth-matted and framed with a color portrait to an overall size of 14.5 x 20. In fine condition. A wonderful example.
